Book Synopsis The Literature of Provence by : Daniel Vitaglione
Download or read book The Literature of Provence written by Daniel Vitaglione and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annexed by France in 1481, Provence still retains its own distinct culture, traditions, and language. While many primarily French authors, like Emile Zola, have dabbled in Provencal literature, this book is dedicated to those whose lives and writing careers have been devoted to this temperate and beautiful land. Included are analyses of the important literary contributions of groups or schools, like the Troubadours and the Felibres; poets like Frederic Mistral and Henri Bosco; playwrights such as Marcel Pagnol; novelists like Alphonse Daudet; and more recent writers such as Marie Mauron and Jean-Claude Izzo. Photographs of many of the authors illustrate the text, which includes English translations of extracts, so that even readers unfamiliar with the language of Provence can enjoy its literature. This introduction is ideal both for those who have enjoyed the work of the featured authors before and for those who are yet to be exposed to the charms of Provencal.

Book Synopsis Clippings From the Vine by : Dayton Lummis
Download or read book Clippings From the Vine written by Dayton Lummis and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-03 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CLIPPINGS FROM THE VINE consists of selections from the author's seven published books, and concludes with a series of contemporary personal essays, observations and opinions as we enter the Obama Era of hopefully positive change. Ranging from Coast to Coast, all over the Inter-mountain West, and covering a period of almost sixty years, the author deftly chronicles his experiences and the characters he has encountered (such as desert rat "Mr. James," featured on the cover). He does so with wit, insight and frequent discontent. These selections can be read as a cross section of a greatly changing America. Whether for the best or not is always on the author's mind. Clippings From The Vine is "solid America," of a type we shall see little or any of in the future "instant media society." And, the author asks you not to judge him, until you've walked the streets of Victor, Colorado...
Book Synopsis Ma Provence by : James Pope-Hennessy
Download or read book Ma Provence written by James Pope-Hennessy and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " À chaque pas vous vous rendez compte que l'on vit sur cet opulent territoire depuis des siècles. En haut, dans les vignobles qui tapissent les collines, comme en bas, parmi les oliveraies remplies d'arbres noueux, on sent l'odeur de l'antique. " Ce classique de la littérature de voyage est écrit à la gloire des régions intérieures de la Provence - son histoire, son peuple, son architecture et ses paysages hauts en couleur, ainsi que son étrange et rude dualité. Qu'il s'agisse de dépeindre les grands monuments tels que le pont du Gard ou le palais des Papes, ou bien la campagne mélancolique qui inspira Van Gogh, qu'il nous remette en mémoire la sculpture exquise ornant l'encadrement d'une porte au fond d'une ruelle, la prose stimulante et évocatrice de James Pope-Hennessy nous met sous les yeux le décor provençal dans toute sa diversité. Et l'on découvre, entremêlés à ses souvenirs de voyage, des scènes empruntées à la passionnante histoire de la région et des pages à la mémoire de ses grands hommes, notamment Mistral, Mérimée, Zola et Cézanne. La Provence de James Pope-Hennessy n'est pas le pays ensoleillé et souriant de la légende, mais pour reprendre ses propres termes, inoubliables, " une contrée amère et féroce, pleine de violence et de léthargie, de perfidie et de gentillesse, pleine de toutes les contradictions possibles, sous son soleil brûlant ".

Book Synopsis The New Georgics by : Liesbeth Korthals Altes
Download or read book The New Georgics written by Liesbeth Korthals Altes and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2002 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human condition in rural, provincial locations is once again gaining status as a subject of European 'high fiction', after several decades in which it was dismissed on aesthetic and ideological grounds. This volume is one of the first attempts to investigate perspectives on local cultures, values and languages both systematically and in a European context. It does so by examining the works of a variety of authors, including Hugo Claus, Llamazares, Bergounioux and Millet, Buffalino and Consolo, and also several Soviet authors, who paint a grim picture of a collectivized - and thus ossified - rurality. How do these themes relate to the ongoing trend of globalization? How do these works, which are often experimental, connect - in their form, topics, language and ideological subtext - to the traditional rural or regional genres? Far from naively celebrating a lost Eden, most of these 'new Georgics' reflect critically on the tensions in contemporary, peripheral, rural or regional cultures, to the point of parodying the traditional topoi and genres. This book is of interest to those wishing to reflect on the dynamics and conflicts in contemporary European rural culture.

Download or read book Marcel Pagnol written by Brett Bowles and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-11 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though long ignored or dismissed by film critics and scholars, Marcel Pagnol (1895-1974) was among the most influential auteurs of his era. This comprehensive overview of Pagnol’s career, the first ever published in English, highlights his unique place in French cinema as a self-sufficient writer-producer-director and his contribution to the long-term evolution of filmmaking in a broader European context. In addition to reassessing the converted playwright’s controversial prioritisation of speech over image, the book juxtaposes Pagnol’s sunny rural melodramas with the dark, urban variety of poetic realism practised by influential peers such as Jean Renoir and Marcel Carné. In his penchant for outdoor location shooting and ethnographic authenticity, as well as his stubborn attachment to independent, artisanal production values, Pagnol served as a precursor to the French New Wave and Italian Neo-Realism, inspiring the likes of Jean-Luc Godard, François Truffaut, Vittorio De Sica, and Roberto Rossellini.
